According to Moskowitz, as many as 77 per cent of iPhone users could be eligible to get battery upgrades, meaning that Apple will not only have to shell out a hefty sum of cash, but that many buyers will therefore put off buying a new iPhone.

Barclays said Wednesday that Apple 's decision to replace aging batteries for $29 instead of $79, following reports that it slowed downiPhones on goal, could be bad for iPhone sales.

Apple is offering people these battery replacements after it was discovered that the company was slowing down older iPhones that had degraded batteries in order to stop the handsets from randomly shutting down.

It's a win for customers who can now extend the life of their iPhone at a lower price, increasing both its battery life and its performance.

Now, Apple is looking at the possibility of the iPhonebattery replacement cutting into iPhone sales this year to the tune of $10 billion. To date, 15 class action lawsuits have been filed against Apple alleging misrepresentation, breach of good faith, and deceptive business practices. With Apple's discounted $29 battery-replacement program, however, I'd get it replaced even at 90% capacity. The stock was up as much as 1.3 per cent earlier in the day.

The battery replacement should both improve performance and battery life. While most of us were in a holidaze last week, Apple published a mea culpa and promised to make replacing the battery on an iPhone less expensive through the end of 2018.

Previous reports have claimed that Apple plans to release a 5.8 and 6.5-inch OLED models of the next iPhone, with a mid-size 6.1-inch TFT LCD display as well. Kuo says Apple is working to build a single battery cell that fits in the same physical footprint as these two stitched-together battery cells.

As part of its statement, Apple also indicated that it would drop the price of an out-of-warranty battery replacement from $79 to $29.
